Warren Brown

Private Instructor - Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand
I have been sailing since 1996. First as crew then as skipper when I launched my own 38ft catamaran in 2008. I have been sailing the beautiful Hauraki Gulf and beyond since then and the more I see and discover, the more I am impressed with our beautiful country. I am passionate about sailing and the environment. In 2019, I passed my commercial skipper's ticket (srl24). I take great joy in showcasing the gulf and watching my students grow in confidence as they learn the pleasure of sailing. Come and join me for an amazing adventure.
